Maybe it's Gamera's back story with his connection with Antlantis. Are there any other monsters besides him and Gayos?

It was on tumblr so I'll try to link the post. Basically it said that the person who has this found it for $5 at a comic store along with a book about the making of Gamera: Guardian of the universe.

Isn't Atlantis suppose to be very advanced. More advanced than modern society. Looking at the images. They don't look very advanced to me. :|

I'd expect robes or any clothing like that like in Disney's Atlantis: The Lost Empire.

Well aliens are naked a lot of the time in movies despite having ships that are capable of space travel and advanced tech. Maybe at some point civilizations get to advanced for clothes :lol:

I found these images on tumblr. The person only said they found it at a shop in Texas for $5 along with the info I gave out earlier in the thread. If you guys want I'll link the original tumblr post.

They've moved beyond pants.
Pants are the one thing holding us back.

HEy guys Zornow here with some info on this mystery...
I OWN a copy of this book, its a softcover Gamera movie book from the 90's in the middle is essentially an illustrated story about the origina of Gamera and gaos created by the race from eons before.. its not a manga, but illustrated pics with text.

the illustrated original story is only 12 pages long.
I will try to scan this... however my copy is damaged from so much use over the years and some of the manga pages are actually falling out ( due to a crappy spine job). SO i have to be careful with the thing... will try to get to it this weekend if i have time..
" What the Moon brings..."
"...and what the night leaves behind..."

Has anyone figured out what book this is in yet? The ISBN on the back is all we need.

I've spent years trying to find the book where this manga is located, I just give up. :(
Could anyone who owns it take some scans or something, please?
